Very smooth! All it needs is the call and lock circles aligned and its go time.
I have actually had to random reboots and my screen is flickering a little when just on the home screen. Its not perfect for sure but not bad for the first nightly, at least in my opinion.
I'm getting the flickering on the homescreen and whenever I'm using the Swype beta keyboard... everything else is working great! If I can get the damn flickering to stop, this Rom will become my DD...

Checking "Disable HW Overlays" in developer options gets rid of the flickering for me as a workaround.

That seems to have worked, thank you!
I'm curious, though, will turning off HW overlays reduce the effectiveness of the JB Project Butter tweaks?

Why, I'm glad you ask! I was just about to let everyone know that disabling HW overlays (or, also, changing debug.mdpcomp.maxlayer from three to 2 in build.prop) will severely impact graphical performance. It may get rid of the flicker, but your performance will take a hit.
My biggest frustration with Jelly Bean on our device thus far that keeps pushing me back to CM9 has been that it is WAY behind in graphical smoothness when Jelly Bean's primarily advertised feature is the graphical smoothness that Project Butter provides. I have to say that I just flashed this nightly build though and it's the smoothest experience I've had yet in Jelly Bean. It's not quite up to par with stable ICS in smoothness but is getting closer.
At the moment, the solution I propose for the flickering of the screen is to use ROM Toolbox to change the debug.mdcomp.maxlayer setting from 3 to 2, then reboot and change it back from 2 to 3, then reboot again. Once you cycle it, the flicker deosn't appear to return and since you're putting the hardware compositing setting back, you don't have to kill your performance to get rid of the flickering! I had success with this method but others may not. Report here to let everyone know.

I am afraid we may have to wait for an S2 official OTA to fix this. It's gotta be something that Sammy has messed with, as we are having the same issue on JB builds for the Tab 7 Plus and the Tab 7.7.
These are Exynos devices, too, so its not an Adreno220 problem from what I can tell.

Tried it and it didn't work. I'm guessing these minor bugs will be fixed in the nightlies.
yeah, I tried the build.prop settings shuffle, and it didn't work. The only thing working on mine is the Disable HW Overlay setting in dev options. Thanks for the idea, though!

Since you have it checked now try going back in and unchecking it. Do you get the smoothness back without all the flickering? I just tried it and it seems to work for now.
I found the gremlin that was causing the constant homescreen flickering for me on this nightly and on Manel's 8/27 kang.
In my case, it was a setting in Apex Launcher that had to be turned off:
Apex Settings -> Homescreen Settings -> Hide Notification Bar
So, if you're running Nova or Apex, make sure to turn off the setting that auto-hides the notification bar. Doing that and setting the maxoverlay value to "2" in the build.prop fixed me right up!

But did your graphical performance not take a hit after changing the setting from 3 to 2?

I think it does slow it down, but changing it back to 3 brings the flickering back, so that's not an option for me.
Excellent ....
Looks like it's time to play with some CM !
Thank you OP ....g
I would like to see some dock settings, especially audio through USB. Love the jellybean goodness though, running great.

I'm new here, and I would like some suggestion about what to do with my S3.
I'm currently using Android 4.3 (not rooted yet), and after reading several posts saying that having very little free ram shouldn't affect the device performance, I'm a bit confused.
In many cases after leaving an app, the icons in the home screen take a while to redraw, sometimes 5 sec or so, so I always have to wait patiently before opening another app.
What would be the best solution to speed this up?
Should I root my phone and install a custom ROM or is there any other tricks? I've already optimized the best I could from what I read in this forum (turning off animation, transition, and all those non necessary Samsung features like those automatic adjustments.
Thanks for your suggestions.

Use custom kernel like boeffla, uninstall bloatware, trim your nand periodically, preferably o.c. Cpu and you are good to go
Hello my fellow LG G6 users,
after I got my LG G6 I unlocked the bootloader and installed Fulmics ROM without hesitation. I don't really care about my warranty when I on the other hand have the ability to enjoy the newest LG UX, Magisk with Viper4Android and the iOS Emojis, or the better battery life. Using a AOSP ROM really never came to my mind since it's known for it's bugs, bad picture quality, battery life and so on. So I used Fulmics 4.2, Melina Kernel and Magisk.
With the announcement of Oreo I really got excited for it, but after @xpirt (btw thanks for your work, beginning with the G3) announced that he likely won't continue Fulmics ROM on the G6 this excitement was quickly demolished. I really rely on some of the tweaks of the ROM. But since I really wanted to see the improvements of Oreo so I flashed the Firmware a few days ago.
Starting with the Firmware for the H870. First of all it's hard to even get the newest (20B) since this is the version with the camera improvements and rebranding of the G6. But after installing it I quickly realized that there are many issues with the Oreo build and many missing features you may know from Nougat and the Fulmics ROM.
1. Original icons are not working with the Stock Google Apps. There will always be this white frame around most of the icons, which is not as good looking as before
2. When you're using bluetooth headphones you will get a persistent notification that you can switch your media output between the G6 speakers and your bluetooth output. A so called "feature". I really don't know how to get rid of it, since you cannot silence it. LINK
3. Battery life is the worse I've ever seen, even worse than AOSP Roms. I'm not even a heavy user but I only get around 3hrs Screen On time which is unacceptable for a last year 2017 flagship.
4. Always on Icons like the battery percentage and the battery symbol itself are not removable and they will always be there LINK
5. Neat features like customization of the QS tiles and volume up/down for skipping tracks on your music app are gone
6. Bluetooth connectivity is in general worse, headphones are randomly disconnecting. LINK
7. SD Card issues with the unofficial 20B build on the westwood24 Firmware 20A thread. SD Cards over 32GB seem to be corrupted for the system
8. Some notifications are not getting displayed like the notification badge on the app icons
These are only some of things that really bother me on pure Stock Oreo. Even with Magisk and Substratum installed which are able to do some of the things, Fulmics Tweaks is easily capable of, with many difficulties.
This thread should not blame LG (Maybe a bit with there so called "features") but may warn some of the users on a very customized and good Fulmics Version when they think about switching to the stock Oreo Firmware, since I personally going to switch back to Fulmics.
Feel free to comment possible solutions for the problems (s.o.) or your own experience with Stock Oreo.
I experience none of the problems with stock oreo.
Its way better than fulmics.

Just edited some links into the thread supporting my points. Which problems exactly don't you have with stock Oreo ?
I don't want miss the new 1password function. This is new in Oreo. Security and so on are better with Oreo. No, I don't want go back to fulmics. Fulmics are very nice, but I need the Oreo features.

I have workarounds for some of these problems. I am on unrooted, stock oreo.
1. Custom launcher with an icon pack. Easy solution.
2. You COULD try disabling the bluetooth app with LG Package disabler, which silences the notification. However, things start to break. I figure, since you're rooted, you could do something with Tasker. Just an idea.
3. Debloat. Or, use LG Package disabler. My battery is nowhere near as bad - an average of 4-5hrs SoT, and this seems to work just fine.
4. It's not really a remedy or anything, but I use the app "Glimpse Notifications" instead of AoD, which turns on the screen briefly and shows the notification. It uses very little battery.
5. Never found those useful, and I don't use the stock music app. Aren't QS tiles still customizable?
6. I just don't use bluetooth headphones. We still have a headphone jack, don't you remember?
7. Never encountered this issue because I have a 16gb sd card.
8. Works on Nova just fine. Maybe check the stock launcher's notification permissions.
As much as I dislike this phone, I've just gotta make do with what I have until my contract is up.
Same here. Honestly, I'm not have these issues either.
The only thing that bothers me after the update is the slight but noticeable performance hit, mainly the lag when starting apps that aren't already running in the background.
But I haven't done a factory reset (out of laziness) which might take care of the problem.

I get 5 hrs SOT with 20b. Don't know why one would get three, but the Rom or Oreo are not the reason apparently.
I like the stock ROM, even though I've been using custom on several phones before this one, since it has VOLTE and T-mobile wifi calling. Don't see any lag I have not been able to get rid of.
I agree it's a bummer that the devs have mostly walked out on the G6.
Not my ROM, this is developed by ArtemMinsk!
Just sharing the link in here because I see so many Mi5 users struggling to find a stable and fully working OS nowadays.

just flashing it out. It needs new firmware. or else it will throw error.
link in case someone get stuck for new firmware.
https://sourceforge.net/projects/re... 5/fw_miui_MI5_V10.2.2.0.OAAMIXM.zip/download
looks good, will post my feedback after using it for a while.
Could you please try out the calls? I couldn't make them work in every aosp based rom (Android 9 / 10) I tried. I wasted a lot of time on that. On miui everything is fine.
I been using it from last 24+ plus hours.. I haven't been impressed so much in recent time with any custom rom. i been on miroom 10.2.1.0 since long, due to stability concern, and this rom beat it. Its really amazing rom.
Its a fast rom, didnt notice any lag, i didnt notice any heat up, call works, internet banking works (need to add in magisk hide), tons of customization, less bloats and VOLTE WORKS..
notification works great, which was always an issue with miui, delayed notification.
lastly about battery.. IT is good, better than miui for me, i was worried about overnight battery drain or doze mode problems, but that is working fine here, hardly 3 to 5% drain overnight.
only bug i found so far,
I use single sim, and second sim i only use in emergency, i disable second sim, i couldnt turn it off for some reason, but its not a big deal, i just removed that sim
Its too early for me to say, but This is by far. the best custom rom for mi5, i ever used.

Hi! I just installed this rom on my old Mi5 and it's just perfect. Can you tell me if there is a version for the Mi9 Cepheus? I would like to install it on my Mi9 but I don't know if there is a version for Cepheus. Thank you!
Hi I just installed this rom and there is not message icon and call screen don't appears. Someone can help with that ?
Edit:
Nvm I just had to install those apps.
I been using this rom for like more than a month now. I have also travelled a lot while on being on this rom. overall its good.
gps is kind of buggy sometimes not as smooth as miui, if travelling often, it might annoy you.
volte i am not sure, its my network issue or rom, when i try to send sms, it just resend them like 5 times lol. i turned volte off, so now its working fine.
Hello, there, netizens of XDA! I came here to express this weird UI bug in the XDA forums to grab your attention on this issue
Judging by the caveats on how terrible the new Android R UI is, it looks like this one went under the radar on many places, so, that brings us here.
The context:-
> Imagine playing an intense match of any gaming title (say Call of Duty : Mobile or Genshin Impact, Human : Fall Flat or Among us) or watching any YouTube Video or streaming Netflix on Android R. Android Framework triggers it's immersive mode on when such activity is triggered and hides both Status Bar and the Navigation Bar when in-game.
The issue:-
> It is pretty common to get notifications when we are busy minding our own business. However, when we swipe down to preview that notification heads-up, or draw the notification shade just to see who texted you, with a probability of 0.7 (7 times in every ten times we draw this), the status bar stays there and doesn't retract at all!
> This issue has been disturbing people with OCD a lot, and it also obstructs the top-view in any app that we are in.
The solution:-
> Force-closing and reopening the app seems to do the job for now.
I managed to reproduce this bug on some Android 11 custom ROMs on the Pocophone F1, but there wasn't any fix proposed yet!
This issue seems to be prevailing in stock ROMs of the Pixel Device line-up too!

Thanks to @Agent_fabulous for the screenshot provided below! First dev to notice it after building R on Begonia back in sept. but didn't consider it as a wide-spread bug across multiple devices
So, what do you guys think? Did anyone manage to find a solution for this issue already? Did anyone raise a ticket in Google issue tracker? Did anyone find any workaround for this issue already?

Yes this bug is very annoying ,a11 is full of bugs and we need nav bar auto hide on a11 like a10 on lockscreen
